On Ubuntu Desktop 20.04.03 LTS, if I target WINE 7.0 "POL_Wine_PrefixCreate 7.0" then WINE mono is able to handle the calls for the Infantry Launcher and it appears .NET is not required to install!

I have tested the following script and it works to skip .NET on WINE 7.0.

Script approved. Good thing if you can avoid to use .Net installer.

The game fails  to launch: "CLR error: 80004005". Tested on Wine 7.0, 5.0.3, and 6.0.1.
It seems the game failed to install.
Other thing:.NET Framework 4.0 seems required before to install the game.

Hi Dadu042, I will update the script, that looks like a .NET error. I think we will need to bump up .NET to at least 4.5.2 to fix that. I’ll get it updated in the morning and then you can try again!

On your comment "Other thing:.NET Framework 4.0 seems required before to install the game." The installer should not require .NET. It's the launcher after installing that requires .NET. The PlayOnLinux install script has the requirement of installing .NET 4.0 (Step 1/2). Just to ask, did you use the "Download" option within the script or did you download the installer from the freeinfantry.com website and "Choose a local exe?" Just so I understand the issue. Thanks for testing this. I do think bumping up the .NET version should help get past that error as well but I will test.

I used the Download option.

I am sorry for so many after submission edits.

Script is good and working! I have made the 4 different POL required images and am linking them here for upload to the catalog:

I re-read this forum post about submissions: https://www.playonlinux.com/en/topic-10187-Standards_for_script_publishing.html and saw that I was missing the two icon files.

Can someone help me get those submitted properly so they show up in the catalog when searching?  (I guess the 22x22 is used in this case, and the 48x48 is used for the installed icon)

Thanks!

Is it possible to edit the original description?

I wanted to make sure everyone knows this is the official Infantry Online from the "Free Infantry Group."  http://www.freeinfantry.com
